Happy MLK, Jr.’s Day off Work Day

So tonight, to celebrate our day off work for Martin Luther King, Jr.’s birthday, we made Black and Tans. Unfortunately, we made them with Guinness and Rolling Rock beers, so even though we were careful, they ended up mixing anyway. It did make this neat coffee color though. For those of you who don’t understand…

An iChristmas Brings (Good) Problems for iTunes

It’s been blogged to death, but I thought for my latest post I’d comment briefly on the iTunes Christmas. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, here’s what happened, briefly: iPods, which have been around for a few years now, have had snowball sales, getting bigger every year. The low-end iPods, such as the…

I gotsa Car!

I got a different car. A 2000 Acura TL. V6, 24-Valve 3.2 Liter engine, dual wishbone suspension, leather heated seats, huge trunk (could fit like 5 bodies in there), 4-door, spacious, auto-dimmer on the rearview for when people’s headlights get too bright, digital thermostat (set the temp and it adjusts to that temp automatically), bose…

Glitterati: Mystique uses a Mac

From the ever-so-credible land of MySpace, one Apple tech support phone operator blogs (albeit ever-so-briefly) that he got a call yesterday from Rebecca, and the caller ID said “John Stamos.” “so the other day I’m answering phone calls all day like I do every day here at Apple, and low and behold, I had my…

Download This!: Firestarter FX

I’m a recent switcher, having begun to find there’s just about everything I need on a mac that I could ever need on a PC. Now this post isn’t intended to start a flame war, or to bash PC’s. In fact, the other night, I was seriously not feeling the love from my Mac Mini.…

The One Where I Finally Update

I’ve decided to stop prefacing every post with “So, it’s been 18,000 years since my last update” because if you actually read / check this, you’ll know it’s been a while. Not much has really changed. Maybe that’s why I don’t update so much. I’m busy a lot, mostly with chores and seemingly mundane tasks.…
